Traveler reviews
Nikolai Mannsfeld
★★★★★4 weeks agoBest park I’ve ever seen before. The waterfall was so relaxing to hear and a beautiful part of the park. This park also hosts the best views of the sunset you can watch in Berlin from the monument with plenty of space, which were epic! Lots of greenery, plenty of open grass spaces to see the sunset, and the water was cold and beautiful from the waterfall. They also had a Stadion, a playground, and a beer garten on site to make the place even more appealing and fun. Highly recommend stopping by and checking out this magnificent park!

★★★★★a month agoVery nice park and an amazing view, probably my favorite view in the city, a perfect place to just grab a drink, a snack , a smoke and just chill, lotta live music here from musicians or just people playing music on speakers so the vibes are 10/10 especially during the sunset! Probably make sure tho that the weather is fine, because if it rains it can make getting down a bit tricky but apart from that this is one of my favorites spots in Berlin and very much underrated as it is overshadowed by its sister park Tempelhofer feld
